Unknown Man

UNKNOWN MAN KILLED HERE, On Saturday morning an unidentified man, aged about 30 
years, was struck by a west bound express in the second cut on the Baltimore & 
Ohio railroad. The man had stepped out of the way of a passing freight on to the 
track where a fast express was which the noise of the freight prevented his 
hearing and in an instant his life was ended. His head and body was badly 
mutilated. The remains were given over to Undertaker Reich and interment was 
made on Sunday in the Union Cemetery.

Meyersdale Commercial, Aug. 5, 1915
